1. The group_has_capacity() function is only called in

(sgs->group_runnable * 100)
Consider group_is_overloaded() returns false because of the first
condition:
if (sgs->sum_nr_running <= sgs->group_weight)
return false;
then group_has_capacity() would be the first place where the group_runnable
vs group_capacity comparison would be done.
Now in that specific case we'll actually only check it if
sgs->sum_nr_running == sgs->group_weight
and the only case where the runnable vs capacity check can fail here is if
there's significant capacity pressure going on. TBH this capacity pressure
could be happening even when there are fewer tasks than CPUs, so I'm not
sure how intentional that corner case is.
Maybe some cpus in sg->cpumask are no longer active at the == case,
which causes the significant capacity pressure?
For the
sgs->sum_nr_running > sgs->group_weight
case I agree with your patch, there just is that oddity at the == case.
So just remove the duplicate check from group_has_capacity().
